Aqueduct Hotlist - December 30

Dec. 29, 2022


By Matt Shifman and Bob Ehalt
Hot List Key:
A: A preferred horse to watch B: Secondary horse to watch
*C: Went down 2 or more betting notches and finished 1st through 3rd
*D: Went down 2 or more betting notches and finished 4^th or worse
* - 4 or more betting notches if 11-1 or more.
1^st race [NY, Md Sp Wt, 7F] – (3) Vax has a pair of seconds in her last two starts after having wide trips both times. Last time she had the lead and fought gamely to lose at the wire. (4) Cairo Sugar ships up to New York from Parx to make her first start against NY-breds following a second at Parx going two-turns. The trainer has a win at Aqueduct in this meeting. (8) Marley’s Ghost was fourth in his debut at 11-1 odds for Michael Trombetta who trains out of Fair Hills in Maryland. (5) I’mhavingamoment was a $495,000 Uncle Mo yearling purchase making her debut with a series of impressive works for Bill Mott. She wouldn’t have to be that good to win in here.
2^nd race [NY, Alw 75000 N1X, 1 mi – (7) Juliana’s Rose had the best result and speed figure of her career when she had the lead and finished second on a muddy track last time. (2) Tough Street won her last two starts with an open-length maiden claiming score against state-breds followed by a three length victory in a starter allowance. (6) Mia Bia Star has three third-place finishes in a row following two seconds all at the Big A in the last two months. (5) Shadolamo was third at this level most recently after a very wide trip.
3^rd race [NY, Md 40000, 1 mi] – (6) West Star (D) broke last and improved his position to fourth for the Asmussen barn when bet down from 6-1 to 4-1 and was claimed. (3) Provision was second in his only start on the main track with four other races on the turf. (7) Who Me had his best finish and speed figure when he missed the win by a neck last month after a wide trip. (4) October Bliss faced a couple of strong maiden special weight fields and now drops in for a tag for the first time.
4^th race [OC 62k/N2X, 6F] – (4) In Dreams (B) went to his knees at the break of his first start following a nine month layoff. In his previous starts he raced on the lead. (7) Sheriff Bianco is riding a three-race winning streak going back to October when he won the first-level NY-bred allowance by almost 12 lengths then stepped up to take the next level and then two weeks ago won an open-company allowance. (8) Outlaw Kid was second in his first start on the dirt at this level since running four times on the grass. (6) Chateau comes back from a June layoff. With eight career wins and six of them at Aqueduct, he is a past graded-stakes winner.
Best bets: Vax (1^st); Juliana’s Rose (2^nd). Best value: West Star (3^rd); In Dreams (4^th)

No.	Name	Letter/ last race	Today's Race	Comments
(6)	West Star	D on 11/17	3	Pinched back at start, rallied from last, claimed.
(4)	In Dreams	B on 11/22	4	Went to his knees at break after nine month layoff.

By Bob Ehalt and Matt Shifman
Hot List Key:
A : A preferred horse to watch B: Secondary horse to watch
*C: Went down 2 or more betting notches in the final 3 minutes and finished 1st through 3rd
*D: Went down 2 or more betting notches and finished 4^th or worse
* - 4 or more betting notches if 11-1 or more. +
1st race – (10) Rigby returns to turf and picks up Irad. Seems poised for a winning try. (4) Oaxaca broke her maiden on Tapeta and should be OK on turf. (8) Boston Princess is worth a look off the claim. (5) Stellarator should be a factor late. Betting strategy: 10 to win, place. Exacta box: 4-5-8-10.
5th race – (3) Takecareofbusiness has handled Tapeta nicely and should be fine on turf. (5) Rockin Roller may appreciate the distance and surface. (7) Unified Weekend can make his presence felt in the stretch. (8) Housebuilder could work out a nice trip from the outside post. Betting strategy: 3 to win, place. Exacta box: 3-5-7-8.
6th race – (6) Mama Maria was an improved second last time and looks best here. (5) Buc N Beauty merits consideration in her debut. (3) Fortuna Belle has a nice burst of speed and could be tough to catch. (1) Flakes is an intriguing first-time starter. Betting strategy: 6 to win, place. Exacta box: 5-6. Exactas: 5-6 over 1-3 and 1-3 over 5-6.
8th race – (2) Maritime Wings returns to turf and seems ready for a winning effort. (4) Father Glado should be well-suited by a return to turf. (7) Causin’ Mayhem could wake up in this field after losing as the favorite. (3) Therapist may be a big threat at this reduced level. Betting strategy: 2 to win, place. Exacta box: 2-4. Exactas: 2-4 over 3-7 and 3-7 over 2-4. Doubles: 2-3-4-7 over 2-3-6-7. 9th race – (7) Hierro seeks a third straight win and is a standout in the field. (6) Causalistic returns to a level where he should be quite competitive. (3) Perfect Cut ships in from California and cannot be ignored. (2) Here Comes Bullet could be a contender on his best try. Betting strategy: 7 to win, place. Exacta box: 2-3-6-7.

RACE 1: Post: 12:00 PT Grade: B+
Main ticket: (in order of preference): 4-Tea Tree Bay
Backups/savers: 2-Ancient Peace

Forecast: Irish invader Tea Tree Bay displayed promise in three all-weather events over the tight left-handed Dundalk track earlier this year, most recently in a runner-up effort behind the good filly Malleymoo, who subsequently finished second when probably best in the recent Wait A While Stakes at Gulfstream Park after walking out of the gate and then closing fastest of all before running out of ground. It is highly unlikely that there is anything as good as Malleymoo in this maiden grass miler, so if the Kristin Mulhall-trained English-bred filly reproduces her European form in her U.S. debut she should be hard to beat at 6-1 on the morning line. We’ll make her a solid win play and the major key in our early rolling exotics. For protection, you should consider another 6-1 morning line entrant, Ancient Peace. The barn has strong stats (23%) with the second time starter angle, and from her cozy inside draw the daughter of War Front is likely to display dangerous early speed with the addition of blinkers and a bullet half mile team drill last week (:48 flat, fastest of 25) when besting ninth race Blue Norther Stakes entrant G Laura.

RACE 2: Post: 12:29 PT Grade: C+
Main ticket: (in order of preference): 2-Allaboutthemoney; 5-Settecento; 1-Salto de Tigre
Backups/savers: none

Forecast: This restricted (nw-3) $20,000 claiming miler for older horses in a messy affair requiring considerable coverage in rolling exotic play. We’ll try to survive using three of the seven entrants while otherwise passing the race. Allaboutthemoney certainly isn’t one to trust, but he does have a prior win with three other runner-up efforts from seven starts over the local main track and shows numbers that are better than par for this level. Anything close to his best effort should be good enough. Settecento won a hard, taxing race at Los Alamitos just 13 days ago and is wheeled back on short rest while dropping below his claim level, so the possibility of a “bounce” is strong. On the plus side, he has numbers that fit, and he has won over the local main track in the past. Salto de Tigre is a one-paced grinder but is guaranteed a ground-saving trip from the rail and should be running on late. He should at least get a piece of it.

__________________________________________________ ____________________________

RACE 3: Post: 12:59 PT Grade: B+
Main ticket (in order of preference): 6-Game Time; 5-Nagirroc
Backups/savers: none

Forecast: If this year’s edition of the Eddie Logan Stakes remains on turf (rain isn’t supposed to arrive until the following day), major player Speed Boat Beach could scratch, as trainer Bob Baffert is convinced the son of Bayern is much better on dirt (we agree). But without a viable alternative race, ‘Beach may stay in the field, and if he does, the projected race flow is certain to change. Interestingly, ‘Beach’s regular pilot Flavian Prat took off to ride Nagirroc under the assumption that ‘Beach wasn’t going to run. As of this writing, the decision hasn’t been made, and if does run, you have to use him. Game Time had to deal with ‘Beach every step of the way in the Cecil B. DeMille S.-G3 under similar conditions at Del Mar earlier this month, but if that colt is withdrawn the John Sadler-trained juvenile could inherit the role as the controlling speed or settle into a comfortable stalking position just behind First Peace if that one commits to the front end. In either case, the son of Not This Time should have no excuses. His speed figures have produced a forward move in each of his four prior races and there’s a reasonable likelihood that his improving pattern continues. Nagirroc finished a respectable third behind two talented European invaders in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf-G1 at Keeneland in November and while a perfect trip may have flattered his performance the figure he earned in that race makes him the likely choice and one to beat. Winner of the Futurity S.-G3 sprinting on grass at Aqueduct in his previous outing, the Graham Motion-trained son of Lea picks up Flavian Prat and projects to inherit an ideal second flight, stalking trip and then have every chance from there.

RACE 4: Post: 1:29 PT Grade: B
Main ticket (in order of preference): 5-Nolo Contesto
Backups/Savers: none

Forecast: Nolo Contesto once hung a photo on Omaha Beach over this track and distance back in 2019 and was considered at that time to be something of a 3-year-old classic prospect. But the son of Pioneerof the Nile has a history of being started and stopped on a bunch of times since then, and almost four years later he’s still looking for his next victory. Maybe it will come today. After shaking off some of the rust in his latest comeback when third in a fast sprint at Del Mar last month, the John Sadler-trained ridgling should be capable of stretching out and handling this restricted (nw-2) $16,000 claiming field, especially with the switch to Flavian Prat. His morning line of 5/2 seems reasonable in a race in which nothing else can be backed with any degree of confidence.

__________________________________________________ ___________________________
__________________________________________________ ____________________________

RACE 5: Post: 2:01 PT Grade: C
Main ticket (in order of preference): 10-San Anton; 7-Looks Rare; 3-Single Track Mind
Backups/savers: none

Forecast: This is an inscrutable maiden juvenile turf miler in which nothing would surprise. Use as many as your budget allows. By default, we’ve landed on European invader San Anton, though due to his connections (Phil D’Amato/Flavian Prat) he’s certain to receive tote action that he may not deserve. His form in Ireland isn’t too bad but it’s not that good either, and he was last of three in a training track team drill six days in a workout that we would describe as disappointing. On the other hand, if it’s not him, it could be anybody. Looks Rare exits a maiden $50,000 sprint but he flashed good speed and earned a decent number when a reasonable runner-up and his pedigree spells distance, so perhaps the Doug O’Neill-trained son of Hoppertunity will shake loose early and get brave. Single Track Mind took the worst of the race flow when closing willingly against slow fractions to be second in a similar event at Del Mar earlier this month. Hopefully, he’ll get a bit more help up front today. Best advice is to tread lightly.

RACE 6: Post: 2:32 PT Grade: C
Main ticket (in order of preference): 7-Big Newton ; 5-Big Bell; 1-Sugar Sugar
Backups/savers: none

Forecast: Here’s another difficult affair in which several among this group of bottom-rung maiden claiming fillies and mares must be considered for inclusion on your ticket. We’ll go three-deep and hope that’s enough. Big Newton chased tougher maiden $50,000 foes in her debut at Los Alamitos, and while she finished last of seven after a rugged start the Steve Miyadi-trained filly actually earned an okay speed figure, one that if improved upon could make her dangerous in this weak affair. Under the circumstances, her morning line of 5-1 isn’t unreasonable. Big Bell has a look based on the route-to-sprint angle and the switch to Flavian Prat. Her only prior one-turn race – her debut over this main track last summer - resulted in a runner-up performance under this jockey that in this context wasn’t half bad. Sugar Sugar removes blinkers (again) and is likely to display speed from her rail post. Maybe she can shake loose early and keep going.

__________________________________________________ ____________________________

RACE 7: Post: 3:02 PT Grade: B+
Main ticket (in order of preference): 10-Slevka
Backups/savers: 6-Kitty Kitana; 3-Briefcase Girl

Forecast: Slevka makes her U.S. debut under first level allowance conditions that suit her to a “T.” Stakes-placed in good company sprinting at Deauville last summer and racing with Lasix for the first time, she has trained splendidly since arriving in the States for Phil D’Amato (25% with a strong ROI with Euro shippers) and should adore the local lawn’s firm ground, something she saw little of in France. Capable of winning on the lead but more likely to benefit from a patient, stalking trip, she is listed at 4-1 on the morning line and that seems about right. Kitty Kitana has been beaten in races that we think she should have won, so we’ll consider her somewhat untrustworthy in this downhill turf sprint. That said, the English-bred sophomore filly arguably is good enough to win with her best effort, and this turn back in trip over a tricky layout she’s run well over in the past makes her a major player. Briefcase Girl is a prototype late-running turf sprinter and is among the most dangerous of the closers. Her one prior outing down the hill was non-productive, but it came against much tougher foes in the Unzip Stakes last fall and this group should be well within her range. __________________________________________________ ____________________________

RACE 8: Post: 3:32 PT Grade: C
Main ticket (in order of preference): 6-Egomania; 1-Sippin N Kissin
Backups/savers: 9-Maynard

Forecast: Egomania and 1-Slippin N Kissin might the two most logical entrants in this restricted (nw-2) $16,000 claimers over a mile on the main track, but both hail from low percentage outfits that are tough to back with confidence. The former has hit the board in his last three with speed figures that are better than par for this level, so it’s hard to imagine him not running well again, even winning, while the latter has the benefit of the rail and earned a career top number (albeit at Los Alamitos) when third in a starter allowance $30,000 affair 13 days ago. He’s about as one-paced as it gets but should draft into a second flight, stalking position and have every chance from the quarter pole home. Maynard is stuck in the 9-hole and will need some luck to work out a decent trip but he did run well enough over this track and distance during the fall season to warrant at least a little bit of a look.

RACE 9: Post: 4:30 PT Grade: B+
Main ticket (in order of preference): 5-G Laurie
Backups/savers: none

Forecast: G Laurie graduated at first asking in very impressive fashion at Colonial Downs last summer and then verified that highly favorable impression when ambitiously placed in the Natalma S.-G1 at Woodbine, where she attracted serious action on the tote (3-1) before performing quite well to be third in an effort that earned a Beyer speed figure of 75 that was 18 points better that her first outing. Entered but scratched from the BC Juvenile Fillies Turf due to illness, she makes her West Coast debut in this year’s renewal of the Blue Norther Stakes that should be well within her capabilities. The daughter of the promising first crop turf stallion Oscar Performance will race with blinkers, an equipment change that seems warranted after she appeared somewhat green and unfocused through the stretch in the Natalma. With the hood on, she was breezing and relaxed in a bullet half mile dirt track team drill eight days ago, so we’re expecting the Graham Motion-trained filly to settle in mid-pack early and then be asked to quicken from the quarter pole home. At 5/2 on the morning line, she is a win play and rolling exotic single.

Al Cimaglia: Cal Expo Pick 4 Analysis-$20,000 Guaranteed Pool

---

December 30, 2022 | By Al Cimaglia
Cal Expo has a 10-race program set to start the weekend. The 0.20 Pick 4 rolls in Race 7. The sequence has $20,000 guaranteed pool with a 16% takeout, and it will be my focus.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 7

1-West Coach Beach (12-1)-Drops out of Opens and did beat this kind the previous start on a sloppy track. Got a suck-around trip that night and the same type of journey could happen this time.
6-He Grins Again (4-1)-Hasn't been able to close in the last 2 but they were on an off-track. That shouldn't come as a surprise, hasn't won on a wet surface in 34 tries. Can offer a fair price, Plano returns and will look for better.
8-Captain Terminator (4-1)-Rallied up 1st over and it looked like a picture was about to happen but fell short to a well-meant winner. Drops and looks like a major player with a good steer.

Race 8

2-Casa Miasa (2-1)-Closed nicely to win in the slop and should be a threat for a repeat with this post draw. Usually gets bet and that will probably be the case again.
3-Wonder Of Love (5/2)-Comes off a brave effort on a sloppy track from the 9 hole. Doesn't win very often but fits and could be better in the 3rd local start.
7-Brooklyn Wind Up (5-1)-Nothing went right in the last trip from the word "go". Short field could help and could be overlooked. Will look for a sharp steer from Thiessen and to be in striking range at the top of the lane.

Race 9

3-Johnnys Gal June (6/5)-The Johnson barn has been cold but this mare should relish the company. Drops to a spot to shine and could connect for the 1st CalX win of the meet.
4-I will Do it (6-1)-This will be 3rd start on Lasix and showed improvement in last versus similar. Should be forwardly placed again and can win right back at a square price.

Race 10

3-Lucky Lil Lady (8/5)-A fast track would help and should have her way with this crew if fully acclimated to Cali coming from the Midwest. Speedy filly faces older but will look for a big try in the 2nd CalX start.
5-Jessies Girl (12-1)-Has had 4 CalX tries and was off a month before the local debut. The next 3 races were on an off-track and her record there is 0-10. Has one-mile experience and showed improvement in last. Willing to take a swing for a price in this spot.

0.20 Pick 4

1,6,8/2,3,7/3,4/3,5
Total Bet=$7.20

Turfway Park - Race #1

#6 Go For It	He might offer a decent enough mid-range price while trying this level for the first time, and I like that he should be able to get the jump on some of the other logical players in a race without a whole lot of depth.
#2 Velocimo	He has not shown much yet through two starts, but he might be quick enough to find a forward spot while trying two turns for the first time. Some longshot appeal in the gimmicks.
#10 Last Cookie	He drops hard for this one after an even effort in that last one, and I worry he'll be overbet for a barn that is just 1-for-6 with these types of maiden claiming route 2-year-olds the last few years here. Obvious player on sale today.
Race Summary	Go For It is interesting enough in an opener where Last Cookie is going to be the default choice for A-list connections who have been struggling a bit here this meet.

Turfway Park - Race #8

#6 Your So Sillea	She'll drop out of the Mahoning stakes try, and I think she gets a pretty good race flow in here. She's fast enough to avoid a deep closing trip, but she has shown a really nice rating gear that should allow her to spy and attack when ready. Solid lean here on what feels like a sort of chaotic card on paper.
#7 Intrigue	She still has to prove that her ceiling is as high as some of the logical players in here, but she has some upside with just four starts under her belt, and I like that she should get a similar trip to the top choice.
#1 Cherokee Song	She's probably in too deep to land this, but there are a handful of speed and pressing types signed on, and her best chance for a share may be to settle and save ground while hoping the pace will tax some of those involved early. Underneath appeal.
Race Summary	Your So Sillea and Intrigue should get decent tracking trips, but the former might offer a bit better price while making her local debut.

Gulfstream Park - Race #1

#3 ANDIE WON (5-1)	Broke maiden in turf route, takes magnified class drop for second start off layoff.
#8 BOSTON PRINCESS (6-1)	Rushed up into fast sprint pace, stretches back out for top claim barn.
#10 RIGBY (9-5)	Blew clear stretch leads on Belmont and Aqueduct lawn, draws outside with Irad Ortiz.
Race Summary	ANDIE ONE broke her maiden going long on the turf, then earned the top grass route speed figure in the field while no threat last out at a higher level. She stalked a slow pace while 3- and 4-wide and lacked stretch kick. Bet to win and place and play a 3, 8 over 3, 8, 10 exacta.

Gulfstream Park - Race #2

#6 MOUSEFAST (9-5)	Ran into traffic jam on rail, regrouped to finish second to odds-on runaway.
#3 BAD HENRY (20-1)	Chased well-meant firster who tested stakes company next out in sprint debut.
#5 FLORIDA STAR (8-5)	Spotted field several lengths, hard ridden to keep up, wrapped up in late stretch.
Race Summary	MOUSEFAST checked sharply on the rail in mid-backstretch while rushing to join the leaders. He was hard-ridden between rivals in the second flight, but still managed to finish a clear second to the 4-to-5 runaway winner. Bet to win and place and play a 6-3-ALL trifecta.

Gulfstream Park - Race #5

#6 NEW YORK THUNDER (1-1)	Turf the only question after visually impressive debut romp.
#3 TAKECAREOFBUSINESS (9-2)	Stakes-placed on all-weather track, projects ideal trip, offers value.
#1 THREE ZERO (5-1)	Hard duel from far turn to deep stretch, caught late in turf allowance.
Race Summary	NEW YORK THUNDER switches to the turf after a smashing debut win and a :47.1 bullet workout last Friday. He was hustled to the lead from the rail, settled into cruise control on the backstretch and exploded when asked for run in mid-stretch. Bet to win and place and key him in a trifecta over the three inside runners.

Rocket Picks ��: Oaklawn Park, Gulfstream Park, and Santa Anita Park for December 30, 2022
By: Aaron Halterman

Let’s get another big Friday of racing kicked off today! For the free pick 4, we will head to Gulfstream Park for the Late Pick 4 on the card. We will also have full card selections for opening day at Santa Anita and Oaklawn Park for the paid Rockets, so be sure to check those out. Let’s GO!

Below is our free late Pick 4 for Gulfstream Park:

Gulfstream Park December 30, 2022

Race 6: Maiden Optional Claiming

We have singled #6 Mama Maria in this spot for the late pick 4 today She has should I experience over the rest of this group, while getting a jockey upgrade to Irad Ortiz, Jr. We also used #3 Fortuna Belle and #5 Buc N Beauty in the Pick 5.

Race 7: Starter Optional Claiming
freestar

This one looks like it will have a logical finish, which is also good, but there are several logical horses entered in the race. That made us go four deep in this spot, which we could afford to do by going shorter in the earlier races in the sequence.

Race 8: Allowance Optional Claiming

This is probably the most wide-open race on the card today. We went with a couple of logical horses in #3 Therapist and #7 Causin Mayhem, who fit well at this class level and distance. We also think #1 Red Hornet and #12 Battle Scars can win here at a price.

Race 9: Claiming

We went four deep in this spot to close out the card with several of these looking like logical choices. #4 Tone Feelin is who we like best, and the horse is also the biggest price, so hopefully we are correct with that opinion. #7 Hierro is the deserving favorite and also one we are using.
